Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mythbuntu-lirc-generator

I have a DVICO_MCE remote control with a single play/pause button.
However, the ~/.lirc/mythtv file generated by  mythbuntu-lirc-generator
has two entries mapping the play/pause button to the 'P' action. Because
of this any attempt to pause an playing video doesn't work as it
unpauses as soon as it is first paused.

The simplest workaround for this problem is to edid the ~/.lirc/mythtv
file to remove the second mapping and the problem goes away. From
looking at this file this appears to be a problem with other DVICO
remotes as well. I'm not sure what cases the underlying mythbuntu-lirc-
generator  program to create two versions of the play/pause mapping, but
I would guess that the combined play/pause button is the source of the
confusion.
